Excellent
Very good post!! YOu definitely know what you are talking about. Thanks for sharing. Brought some insight into some ideas I never thought about thanks.

GREAT!
OOOOOOH!!!! I'm gonna print these and put them all over my locker at school.... I have a Poem of the Week posted there and a lot of people stop by to see it every week. Maybe these will help them to understand that poetry doesn't have to rhyme like it did in elementary school...
Thanks sooooo much for sharing this...
- MJ* -
Excellent
Why I never knew... thanks. A good tutorial. -
Soul N Effecks,
I think you would be glad to know I think I just added the multi-syllabic rhymes you were talking about.
I hope this will help make the Flash Cards even better.

If your going to give a lesson on rhymes I think multi-syllabic rhymes are too important to forget. Many poets don't botehr to utilize them but I know when someone does I appreciate it that much more. Just a suggestion.
-
Wonderful .... And so informative .... Thank you for flashing us
.... No seriously, I learned a lot .... Most of my poetry is rhyming, so this really applies to me
God Bless, Sunshine -
ephemeral,
Very good suggestion I will see what I can do to help you out one that. showing examples does help some people.
Thinking of adding a link maybe in the authors note that will link one flash card column to another also. As right now I have two and planning a 3rd later.

Maybe I should add both types of forced rhymes.. but I happen to like the postive version better than the negitive... hehehe
-
Oh thank you for sharing this one... at least to those who do not appreciate rhymes or hated rhymes would try to look into this as a beauty...
-
Awesome. Puts clarity to the meaning of rhymes. thanks alot!
-
Oops, Lone made booboo. lol blushing from embarrassment.
Duh!! Sorry, haven't really been reading much for quite a while, been offline, and didn't see the columns before, mostly just poetry...so sorry if I didn't see the other flashcards. 
I'll have to try to catch up quick with the rest of you Earthlings. hahaha Thanks for filling me in or I'd still be thinking this was the first tutorial. lol

Great

I loved your example of forced rhyme because you showed the master of "positive" forced rhyme. Forced rhyme so often has a negative connotation. If exaggerated, it can be very funny. Ogden Nash is truly the king of this type of forced rhyme humor. I've included it in the same spirit in several of my poems, but have wondered if the humor has been misunderstood. In general of course, forced rhyme is a no no.
I see people referring to forced rhyme more often in the context of using a rhyming word because it rhymes instead of because of its meaning. For example,
As I was loading the copy machine
I noticed a mouse with fur pristine.
Thanks for posting such an educational column.

I actually already have one on Types of Poetry. Just gives the basic fast and easy what type sets up how. It is also called Flash Cards. I been working on sets. Which I noticed by the comments some have already seen my work before.. hehe
LadyKat
p.s. I might do a terms one next.
-
educational
thank you - now I have still less reasons not to produce poetry -
Lol... Lone Poet... LadyKat has been doing other flashcards... and let me say... I love them dearly... shuns lonepoet for not knowing
-
I tend to hate rhyme, and thus write prose, but this is helpful
-
Very clever! :)
Oh cool! Thanks for posting this as "flashcards". I'm a rhyme-a-holic, always rhyme in my poems, flows better to me...I know it makes alot of people nutso over that. (I even wrote a poem about that called "Possessed By Rhyme Fairies) lol But it's the only way I can remember and put it together so it makes sense...as it's so confusing and too much to remember, and I have no formal poetry training (just the writing I learned in English and Comp 101 in school...stories, essays, and such that I got A's in but don't remember a darn thing) lol
So this is nice to see, it's a clever way to help others remember which rhyme is which...I like the descriptions, seems easy enough even for poetry dummies like me to learn. And I like how you put it in simple terms for beginners.
You or someone else should do another article like this, "flashcards"...but more indepth for total beginners, for the other types of poetry...includ. terminology, diff. types of poetry, easy ways to understand what it all means (without having to be an English Lit. major) LOL, and how to count syllables for haikus, etc.
Really good one, glad I peeped up and saw it in my face when I logged on, was half asleepap. Thanks for sharing with those of us who are cognitively and creatively challenged.
lol Now bring more like this and maybe I'll actually learn something and look forward to writing instead of dreading it like Shakespeare and dentists! hahaha

much full of usefullness here

Wow a great list, which I am sure will be very useful when I encounter a "rhymers-block", which happens all too often for my comfort. One suggestion, it would bewonderful if you could give exampls for all of the types you have mentioned. It makes i much easier for a layman to understand when having an example rather than through definitions
-
This is great. I can't tell you how many times I've had to explain forced rhyme and such to people!
M -
Thank you! Anybody who has ever read my work knows that I might as well be allergic to rhyming, so this should be a great reference for those, like me, who are rhyming impaired!
A/E/S -
o.O cool... but i still dont know how to rhyme lol... but yeah thats helpful
-
This is really helpful
-
thanx for having these here, they defiantely helped me
